11pm - : Jay Bliss at LÄRM Jay Bliss began his DJ-ing career in his hometown of Sibiu, Romania, organizing underground raves. Over the course of a busy three years he gained much local support and was soon an integral part of Hermannstadt’s underground electronic scene. After meeting Markus Homm (Freunde Tontraeger / Highgrade / Ostwind) in 2004, the two conspired to open a record shop, Electrique Boutique. It was, at the time, Romania’s only record shop; this a testament to Jay’s ‘can do’ attitude and devotion to the industry. Since then, Jay has developed a style sitting somewhere between house and techno with strong Detroit roots, and he plays across Europe supporting the likes of Loco Dice, Guy Gerber, Paco Osuna, Derrick May, and Efdemin.Saturday

Juho Laitinen will play a brand-new Niblock piece on cello. The opening night will be kicked off by Thomas Ankersmit, who will perform a piece on the Serge analogue synth, exploring the sound phenomenon known as otoacoustic emission.
8pm - : The Melvins, Big Business at A38 ShipThe Melvins were formed in Montessano, Washington in 1983 by Buzz Osborne, Matt Lukin, and Mike Dillard. Lukin and Dillard left the band, and drummer Dale Crover stepped in shortly thereafter. Osborne and Crover have been the Melvins' mainstays throughout their 29-year metamorphosis.
The Melvins' music is oppressively slow and heavy, only without any of the silly mystical lyrics of the indulgent guitar solos; it is just one massive, oozing pile of dark slime. With their slow, heavy and dark grooves they rediscovered "stoner-rock".

8pm - : Spiritual Front, Azar Swan at ShowbarlangSpiritual Front is a five-part neofolk act from Rome. Its members describe their music as "nihilist suicide pop", although elements of neoclassical and rock music, melancholic folk, as well as tango are prevalent, along with a recurring experimental feel.

The group's work has been described as crossing a wide variety of genres and musical styles or traditions, and the band itself is considered highly unique among the modern neofolk and post-industrial scenes in Europe. The ingenuity and constructiveness of Spiritual Front's songs have gained them something of a cult following since their formation in the late 1990s.
